Truiury Dtpanmtm Truck overloading offenses have dropped from 23 per cent of those examined to 2.4 per cent since the commencement of Illinois' track weighing program. Lieutenant H. W. Nofs of the second district of the Illinois state highway police in Elgin featured these statistics in an address to the Fox Valley Area Council of the Chicago Motor Club at its recent meeting in St. Charles. Council members were hearing an authority, as Liet. Nofs was largely responsible for the beginnings of the program twenty months ago. ' , • According to the veteran high- Jway officer (Noffs' 27 years of I active duty are tops In the departiment), 1,090,271 trucks have been Weighed from Jan. 31, 1949, to July 31. 1950. A total of 43,130 arrests have been made. During the first week of the program, 13,000 arrests were made Out of 113,000 trucks stopped. In July of , this year there were 277 arrests | out of 11,715 trucks weighed. Trucks carrying overloads must get rid of excess cargo before leaving the weighing stations. Nofs said they are made to pull over to the side and there discharge the extra poundage or wait for the aid of another company 'carrier. He added that this lat- (ter sometimes leads to an anxious I predicament as in the case of a ; truck carrying hot asphalt which gradually cools and hardens. The question was asked-- why For about forty years. University of Illinois flower specialises have been improving greenhouse chrysanthemums. Complete line of Beebe .livestock remedies at Wattle* Driug Store McHenry. ' Itf do they still overload? Nofs replied that, by detourtng around a weighing station and by traveling on little-used roads, a company can put through four or five overweight trucks, then be fined on a sixth and still be ahead. Nofs emphasized that the state police do not assess fines for overloading. They can only take the offender into the nearest court, which is in most cases a Justice of the peace. He said that cities above 50,000 have it within their power to increase their own maximum load weighs by 33^ per cent if they get Btate approval. Previous to recent legislation, Chicago was the only municipality that was able to do this.
